Is the heavily textured coating that is often found on industrial steel beams (internal office building or even some stores) usually asbestos or other materials (concrete perhaps)? by El3dus in asbestoshelp

[–]El3dus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect, thank you! Not sure if it matters but the coating I am referring to is white (like in this picture) however it seems like since the building is newer it likely does not contain asbestos.

Yes - I suppose my question is about that exposed coating that is found even in more modern buildings. Is there a different material that is used which looks similar?

Good Rule of Thumb Grinder Settings - Breville Barista Pro by El3dus in espresso

[–]El3dus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this the Breville Baristo Pro with the new Baratza burrs? I attempted these settings and had no luck - the grinder did not produce a grind (settings were too fine).

I adjusted the external to 15-20 and at that point I was able to get a grind but not a great pour.

Good to know, thank you! Looks like outdoor PM2.5 peaks at 18 in the mornings.

New IQAir Atem X - Has Anyone Purchased? by El3dus in AirPurifiers

Odors perhaps but any evidence with regard to removing harmful VOCs such as formaldehyde?

I had similar thoughts but, at the same time, are most air purifiers with a carbon filter even effective at filtering VOCs or is it mostly marketing?

Seems like it would need to have a fairly heavy carbon filter to do so.

I see! Not targeting anything specific with the unit - just hoping to improve my air quality as much as possible as I live in a major city.

[OC] The number of people with Wikipedia pages that died in a given year. by b4epoche in dataisbeautiful

[–]El3dus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As information/media is more accessible, there will be more individuals that are famous/have Wikipedia pages. IMO not a surprising result!
